It seems that after the recent Democratic Convention, nothing much changed in the voter polls. The various USA political polls reveal " a Nation divided " -- a " dead heat " between political parties. The electorate is currently leaning half one way and half the other, with a small group that is undecided. That's the way it is in our inner awareness, too, is it not? We have the thought party of the worldly thinking that judges by outer appearances. And we have the thought party of the Spiritual platform that has " overcome " the world and judges not by appearances. Just as the electorate has pretty much " made up their minds " so have most of us in our daily living. In Divine Metaphysics, of course, it has nothing to do with political platforms, and everything to do with our consciousness. The worldly platform stands for judgement, limitation and duality thinking, fear, un-forgiveness, maintaining old habits. We judge by outer appearances. The Truth platform stands for right judgement (perceptions), realization of abundance through Grace and the perfect provision of Providence, love that overcomes fear, the practice of forgiveness, and rising above old limitation habits. The " undecided " factor represents the Divine impulse in each moment that can " sway the vote " or " tip the scales " and determine the final outcome. The Divine Ideas as thoughts embodying God qualities become the " swing voters. " In Mysteries, Nona Brooks wrote: " There are two phases in our daily experiences -- an outer aspect and an inner reality. Let us turn our thought to that Something within, and begin to solve the problems of our human relationships from this basis. What is that Something within? It is the truth of the Omnipresence of God. It is what Paul taught us -- that we live, move, and have our being in God-Being. There is one God above us, in us, and through us. The psalmist tells us that we cannot flee from the presence of God. Whither shall we go? It is this Presence and Power that inspires us in all our expression -- be it in our relationships or in our work. Are we considering this point carefully enough? " The Sufi poet Rumi wrote: " If you want peace and purity, tear away the coverings! This is the purpose of emotion, to let a streaming beauty flow through you. Call it spirit, elixir, or the original agreement between yourself and God. Opening into that gives peace, a song of being empty, pure silence. " The outer pollsters can be tricksters! In the " pure silence " of our inner thought poll, we have Free Will to determine our outcome. We each have the ultimate inner vote, enfranchised by God!
